If any of us had done a small fraction of what the clintons have gotten away with we would be in jail for life.

Everything about them reeks of corruption, slime and filth. Neither one of them have an honest bone in their body.

Can you tell I despise them? ;-)

Last month, The New York Times reported that Mr Clinton flew to Kazakhstan on the executive jet of Frank Giustra, a Canadian mining financier and multi-million dollar backer of the Clinton Foundation who was also seeking a contract with the Kazakh government.

Mr Clinton was there to see the work of his Foundation on an Aids project, but also praised President Nursultan Nazarbayev, who has been widely criticised for human rights violations, for “opening up the social and political life of your country”.

Mr Giustra, who organised a lavish charity dinner for Mr Clinton’s 60th birthday, was subsequently awarded a lucrative uranium mining deal in Kazakhstan ahead of more experienced industry competitors.

“The vast scale of these secret fund-raising operations presents enormous opportunities for abuse,” said Representative Henry Waxman, the California Democrat, who has introduced legislation requiring the disclosure of donors to presidential libraries.

There is nothing more telling about the mood of Dems regarding the Clintons than Waxman coming out in full colors.

Mr Clinton’s ties to the sheikh have already put him at odds with political stances adopted by his wife. Two years ago, she was outspoken in her denunciation of the Bush administration’s plan to sell control of six major US ports to Dubai Ports World, but it later emerged that her husband was advising the Arab emirate how to handle the furore. Last month, The New York Times reported that Mr Clinton flew to Kazakhstan on the executive jet of Frank Giustra, a Canadian mining financier and multi-million dollar backer of the Clinton Foundation who was also seeking a contract with the Kazakh government. Mr Clinton was there to see the work of his Foundation on an Aids project, but also praised President Nursultan Nazarbayev, who has been widely criticised for human rights violations, for “opening up the social and political life of your country”. Mr Giustra, who organised a lavish charity dinner for Mr Clinton’s 60th birthday, was subsequently awarded a lucrative uranium mining deal in Kazakhstan ahead of more experienced industry competitors. Mr Clinton’s aides have denied that he influenced the deal or behaved improperly. Mr Clinton has also resisted pressure to name donors to his presidential library. But newspaper investigations have uncovered many foreign contributors, led by Saudi Arabia, and an overlap between library benefactors and Hillary Clinton campaign donors, The New York Times reported.

We need to keep the PRESSURE on for Hillary and Bill's FINAANCIAL RECORDS!!! Go OBAMA!!

[bannie]

The real money was in the extortion.

[Ann Archy]

Remember the Clinton Legal Defense Fund?

Maggie Williams took a $50,000 check from Johnnie Chung IN THE WHITE HOUSE (against the LAW) and NOTHING was done to her and now she is back as Hillary's Manager!!! Where's the LAW?????

[Ann Archy]

Thanks for the ping! We really do need for the media to keep the pressure on.

If Pitbull Pig Waxman goes AFTER the Clintons I will be SHOCKED!!! He will just snort around Reagan and Bush's Libraries, I'm sure.......he wants to LIVE ya know!

[Miss Behave]

You’re welcome, Ann. Yes, aren’t there any intrepid gumshoes left in journalism?
